The Union Law Minister said that more than 4 crore 98 lakh cases are pending in various courts in India. It is not easy to reduce the pendency even as the number of new cases doubles, he said, adding that Indian judges are working exceptionally hard, but it is becoming more challenging. The minister said that under normal circumstances a judge disposes of an average of 50-60 cases per day.
